Sabrina, I would love to read more of your always thought-provoking writing on this site. It would be nice to know that someone will be keeping an eye on here, in the inevitable event that people will continue to do stupid shit, and the occasional smart shit, in this crazy industry. I would love to read about more than porn too. Thanks for the shoutout 🙂

In reply to BT. BT I am holding out hope that this site will actually find iots way without me being as much the centerpiece. I am seeing a voice emerging here and I think it may even speak to a larger audience. I retired because porn as you and I know it has moved on and it was time for me to do the same but there are people here who all hold things in common and I think there may be a lot more in common that is noticed at first glance. There is an amazing amount of tolerance here and as such there is a high degree of intellect and valuable discourse. I hope it continues.

I would say to anyone writing here that the key, is be honest don’t be afraid to be yourself, admit that you can learn here, admit that what you think today could change tomorrow based on your experiences and observations but more than anything write from the heart. I have been wrong many times but if it was for the right reasons and I learned from it then it was a good thing. I am pleased to see this site taking a life beyond me I hope that it continues, there is real talent here that is finding a voice, my traffic has not dropped by much at all, thats a testiment to goddess, tim, sabrina, lurking reader and the commenters.

I always enjoy reading your posts, Sabrina. Please continue to post in this forum, and do so often. Your voice would be missed if you left this site.

Like holding two opposing views at the same time, its possible to be both a fan and a friend. Heck, I miss this site already!

I have to second BT’s sentiments and the amazing thing is that English is a SECOND language for you. This site has always been for the readers….thats why I gave out author logins I think you might very well find a solid audience here. Much love and success to you whatever you do though. I hope someday to find ourselves in the same place at the same time so that I might meet the person I feel I know so well. And BT I cant really grasp the idea of fans and even if I did you would be way more in the friends column as would most everyone here

Sabrina: You write well, and you write thoughtfully. I think if you’re interested in taking the time, you may very well find an audience.

One of the most effective writers on Mikesouth.com over the years was Julie Michaels, at least initially. She brought two things to her posts: The first is that she wrote honestly about the life and working life of porn talent in a way that was sometimes, frankly, painful to read. The other is that she understood the craft of putting a piece together.

I think there are readers who are interested in reading that kind of memoirish writing.

Just a thought from a long time Mikesouth.com fan.
